White MB

[tdekany]

This was a free detail for my Accountant who has been very good to me and looks out for me. The paint was in terrible shape and looked more gray in some places than white. Unfortunately I still haven't figured out my camera to show dirt on white although the firs picture shows it somewhat in the front fender and rear door.
The inside was a mess and all I did was vacuum and wipe the dash and clean the windows. It would need half a day to get it look presentable, but looks much better now.

#83 pc white LC pad speed 6
#80 pc white LC pad speed 6
NXT pc white LC pad speed 5
Hot Shine on tires and black molgings

I had 4 polishing pads with me and had to wash them twice and 1 of them 3 times while using #83!

Awesome results with dramatic improvement in gloss, shine and reflectivity.

Just out of curiosity, when you say you washed your foam pads polishing pads, what did you use to wash them with?

thank you so much Mike! Unfortunately the car already looks like hell. I mean it looks much better then before, but it needs a wash! It is dirty.

( I figured out how to turn off my cookies but still reregistered with a different name)

I used some liquid hand soap that was in the restroom.

you did a great job.... i guess the owner was very pleased with the reslults..

Whoa!!! That's a dramatic improvement right there!! You can see how dirty the paint is and the white just looks like a stained white or cream in color... lol!!

Mike, maybe you can link this thread to your write-up with regards to "importance of paint cleaner." I think that this is a very good example.

congratulations! awesome job!
